It’s like like the luckiest person in the world. I really do.” 5 Due to a hereditary condition, Julie Schneider of Arden Hills, Minn. started losing her hearing in her 20s. Her condition deteriorated over time and she became unaware of the sounds and noises around her. In 2003 Julie got help from her first Can Do Canines Hearing Assist Dog, Sandy—a Cocker-Papillon mix. The hearing helper alerted her to all the sounds she had been missing and Julie was feeling reconnected to the world again. But when Sandy died of cancer in 2011, Julie’s problems reappeared. A chance encounter with a dog breeder led her to adopt Shiya, a four-month-old American Eskimo. The two had an immediate connection, and from the start Shiya was beginning to alert Julie to sounds. But the JULIE SCHNEIDER & little pup had some kinks and quirks that needed to be worked out. That’s when Julie reached out to Can Do HEARING ASSIST DOG SHIYA Canines for help. Bred to be a herding dog, Shiya could be timid and shy toward strangers. Can Do Canines worked with Julie to make Shiya more comfortable approaching people. Gradually, she overcame her fear. Shiya also had a problem with pulling while on leash in public. Can Do Canines worked to overcome this issue through various training techniques and a special harness. “It took a lot of work and determination,” remembers Julie. “I almost gave up.” But the two persevered, and now Shiya consistently alerts Julie to everyday sounds most of us take for granted. Alarm clocks, oven timers, door knocks, fire alarms, running water and Julie’s name being called all fall under Shiya’s repertoire. “I’ve been extremely pleased and blessed—Shiya just sort of fell into my lap,” Julie says. “With help from Can Do Canines, Shiya has changed my life.” 6 Holly Arnold-Rains of St. Anthony, Minn. has a complicated history of stroke and seizures. Her main problem is balance, but she also has trouble grasping items, because one wrist was badly damaged in a fall. “I realized that I was calling on my kids more and more for help,” Holly says. “To keep my independence and be able to stay in my home, I knew I couldn't keep depending on them.” Holly’s physical therapist thought an assistance dog from Can Do Canines could help. She applied, and was matched with Link, a two-year-old black Labrador Retriever. Today, when Holly drops items, Link is there to pick them up—no family assistance required. Link frees up her energy by opening doors, retrieving the phone, and even lending a paw with the laundry. HOLLY ARNOLD-RAINS & “Link is so attentive to my needs,” Holly says. “He MOBILITY AND SEIZURE just knows—he has an instinct. If I drop something, even when I didn’t know that I did it, he’ll surprise me by ASSIST DOG LINK bringing it right to me.” Holly’s seizures can come at any time, so she needs Link to get her medication, and keep her Vagus Nerve Stimulation magnet handy. Holly uses this special magnet to trigger an implanted device near her neck, which delivers a burst of stimulation that can help stop her seizure before it occurs. If a seizure does occur, Link makes sure she recovers quickly by licking her hands and face, re-acclimating her to her surroundings. “I’M HONORED “It's wonderful to have him lay there and be with me,” TO HAVE SOMEONE Holly says. “I worked as a caretaker for many years, so TAKING CARE OF I’m honored to finally have someone taking care of me.” ME.” To all the volunteers and donors who made the partnership possible, Holly says, “I’m able to live independently and Link and I can be a team.

    Spanish Art & Culture Julio Iglesias Julio Iglesias' Biography as found at his official website - www.julioiglesias.com Julio Iglesias was born in Madrid on 23rd September 1943 to Dr. Julio Iglesias Puga and Maria Del Rosario de la Cueva y Perignat. He shared his childhood with his brother Carlos. His father, Dr. Iglesias Puga, was born in Orense, Galicia. On his mother's side, his grandfather was Jose de la Cueva, a famous Andalusian journalist. He was a remarkable athlete, and he played goalkeeper for the junior Real Madrid soccer team. He wanted to be a professional soccer player, but he never abandoned his studies. He studied Law in the Complutense University of Madrid. On the night of 22nd September 1963, while returning from Majadahonda to Madrid about two o'clock in the morning with some friends, he suffered a very severe car accident which left him semi-paralyzed for more than a year and a half. The hope that he would walk again was very slight. To develop and increase the dexterity of his hands he started to play the guitar and write poetry. His personal will to live, and the great support of his family, especially of his father, who even abandoned his profession for more than a year to help his son's rehabilitation, produced a true miracle. After many months of very difficult recuperation Julio began to walk again. Once recovered, he resumed his studies and travelled to England to study English, first in Ramsgate and then went on to Bell's Language School in Cambridge.

  • Tercer Premio Cuarta Edición Del Premio De Narración Breve De La UNED De Mérida
    TERCER Premio Mi chica de ayer Ana Vega Burgos IV PREMIO DE NARRACIÓN BREVE DE LA UNED DE MÉRIDA Tercer Premio Cuarta Edición del Premio de Narración Breve de la UNED de Mérida Bajé las escaleras de su casa a tropezones, sin buscar el interruptor de la luz, sintiendo que mi garganta se agrietaba de puro seca, escuchando mi propia respiración agitada como las olas de un mar atormentado, estallándome en los oídos los latidos apresurados del corazón. Solo quería estar solo, lejos, y pensar, pensar… aunque seguramente acabaría emborrachándome para escapar de mis pensamientos. Llegué al coche. Lo había dejado abierto con la prisa y la fiebre, cuando mis labios se perdían entre sus fragantes cabellos, las manos temblando bajo el abrigo rojo. Comprobé que, milagrosamente, todo continuaba en su lugar, incluso el portátil, descuidadamente abandonado sobre el asiento trasero. Giré la llave en el contacto para salir como una bala marcha atrás, y entonces lo vi. Era un guante gris. Arrugado, casi oculto entre el asiento y el respaldo. Y no tuve que cogerlo para vislumbrar que también estaba manchado de sangre. Con un gemido ronco, lo arrojé a la calzada y salí de allí como alma que lleva el diablo. ¡No pensaba volver! ¡Al demonio aquella chica con su nombre de canción y sus misterios! ¡Al diablo sus cálidos besos, su piel sedosa, sus brazos envolventes! ¡Ni siquiera volvería nunca más por el bar de la plaza! Nos habíamos conocido en el bar, aquella tarde. Ella permanecía sentada ante la barra en un taburete sin respaldo; yo podía, desde mi mesa, observar a placer su rostro absorto, ensimismado.

  • LA CRONICA WAMBEÑA NUMERO 10.Pub
    14 www.wamba.org ¿Te acuerdas de…? “La Televisión de los años 70” a televisión se convirtió en el espectáculo preferido de la sociedad española de los años 70. Y es que el país iba a sufrir cambios radicales cada dos por tres y la mejor manera de vivirlo sin que a uno le L salpicara era presenciarlo desde el sofá de casa. La Primera Cadena de TVE llegaba a todos los rincones pero el UHF todavía era una "delicatessen" apta únicamente para los más privilegiados. Precisamente, el programa que más llamó la atención a principios de la década, se emitía por el "canalillo", como se denominaba a la 2. Se trataba del espacio de entrevistas de José María Íñigo, "Estudio abierto". Y su título respondía a la realidad del show ya que por su plató podía desfilar desde la anciana del pueblo que corría delante de los toros de Cuéllar a los más ilustres invitados internacionales, tales que Anthony Quinn, Ava Gardner o Charlton Heston. Iñigo se convertiría en el presentador incombustible de estos años con programas del mismo corte pero diferente título. Le seguiría en el 75 "Directísimo" con el momento memorable de Uri Geller paralizando el país al doblar cucharas y hacer andar relojes que llevaban parados un tiempo. La psicosis popular se adueñó y consiguió transmitir sus poderes a los hogares patrios. Su impacto lo demuestra la portada del periódico ABC al día siguiente de la emisión. E Iñigo se trasladó a la sala de fiestas Florida Park para hacer su "Esta noche fiesta" más musical y con famosos en el graderío.

I am delighted to do so. Hubbard Broadcasting and the Hubbard family have made important and sustained contributions to the world of news and technology. From the printing press to the satellite dish to the smart phone, technology has played a critical role in accelerating the speed of news and Hubbard Broadcasting has long stood in the intersection of news and innovation. As a pioneer in radio and television, Hubbard Broadcasting has a history of leadership, having been among the first with regularly scheduled radio and TV newscasts, all-color television stations and other journalistic and technological improvements. Hubbard launched the first satellite newsgathering truck and SNG operation with CONUS 1, and was the first in satellite T\/ with its U.S. Satellite Broadcasting. In May 2016, the Newseum announced a $5 million gift from Hubbard Broadcasting in support our mission to champion free expression and the five freedoms of the First Amendment. With this gift, Hubbard Broadcasting became the Newseum's 16th Founding Partner, joining a long list of families, foundations and corporations that have made extraordinary contributions to our building. To recognize this generous support, the Newseum's Concourse Level was named the Hubbard Broadcasting Concourse.

The myth of the unbeatable fighter is just that, a myth. In what will go down as the single most memorable UFC fight in history, Ronda Rousey was not only defeated, but systematically destroyed by a fighter and a coaching staff that had spent years preparing for that night. On 2/28, Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey were the two co-headliners on a show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The idea was that Holm, a former world boxing champion, would impressively knock out Raquel Pennington, a .500 level fighter who was known for exchanging blows and not taking her down. Rousey was there to face Cat Zingano, a fight that was supposed to be the hardest one of her career. Holm looked unimpressive, barely squeaking by in a split decision. Rousey beat Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.
